so is having flame throwers on the exhaust on a car like the Z.

 

whats next? pulling up the e-brake on the highway to make it look like your brakes are really getting a workout??

The funny thing is people think something like this is new. This has been around about since at least the 1950's, most likely much earlier. It will kill, and almost not work at all with cats. The only kind of car that should be thinking about this, and that it would be cool on, would be a 20s-50s hot rod.

We need to create a Nissan 350z reserve clause, like a wildlife refuge. Save the 350z from being cut up and mangled! It's such a slick car, we need to try and help keep people's modding in check, lol.

 

I always thought it was cool how the Porsche race cars spit flames when they downshifted, and during shifts. Thing is, there is a reason why they do that. To put a fake setup on a z is no different than putting on a fake blow-off valve or one of those gay intakes that look like an intercooler. If you want flames to come out of your Z then by all means spend whatever you have to til you have the PERFORMANCE to do so. When are people gonna realize that if it's fake it's ghey.

On a side note, those flame throwers invented in South Africa, that shoot flames out the side of the car to ward off carjackers, or attackers, now those are cool!

 

im glad im not the only one on here that feels like this! seems that our local admin VQracer doesnt like me calling products rice, so i guess ill call them bling.

Well I gotta be honest, I agree with VQ's attitude about rice at least 90% of the time. Goto the "Glad to see non-ricers" post, and read my replies:

That pretty much sums up my attitude about calling everything rice. I think that this post is obviously about putting something fake on your car and that pretty much automatically puts it in the rice catagory. Thing is, that some people like to shout rice at every mod people bring up, and I fully support the way VQ handles that. One of the main reasons people come to this site is to talk about mods, if I can't bring up something as simple as a tasteful aftermarket floormat without some bozo yelling rice, then they deserve what they get. Now I don't know what you have done to get VQ's attention, so I'm not saying he's right in your case. If you don't display the behavior I just talked about then don't be offended by what I said, I'm not implying you do that.
